To calculate the power cost, the load wattage of the lamp post fixture must be stated. This wattage is then changed to kilowatts by dividing by 1000. Once this is obtained the next thing that must be stated is the amount of time the light is on. These two values are then combined to be stated as kilowatt hours. It is kilowatt hours that the utility company bills you for. Use the rate in your area multiplied by the kilowatt hours calculated will give you the cost of operating the lamp post fixture.

How much power in watts will an led bulb consume if its energy is 6 joules?

Joules (energy) are not equivalent to Watts (power).If something converts 6 Joules every second, it is 6 Watts. If it takes ten seconds to convert 6 Joules, its power is 0.6 Watts.Multiply the Watts by the seconds to find the Joules.CommentYou do not 'consume' power. Power is simply a rate; you cannot consume a rate! You consume energy; the rate at which you consume it is power.

How much electrical energy is produced by a light bulb with the power ratings of 60w?

A lamp doesn't produce electrical energy; it utilises it. The power-rating of the lamp will tell you the rate at which that lamp uses expends energy at its rated voltage. For example, a 60-W lamp will expend energy at 60 joules per second.
